Last Updated: June 17th, 2026 by Michael SchatzAs baseball fans, we love seeing how some of the all-time great players stack up against each other. It’s a never-ending debate. A lot of players get by on reputation alone – Harmon Killebrew has nearly 600 home runs, surely he has a higher slugging percentage than Jeff Bagwell… right? We’ve run the numbers and crunched the stats to find out how some of the most popular players …
Last Updated: June 17th, 2026 by Michael SchatzI have to play homer here for a second. I’m from Philadelphia. The Phillies are my team. And one of my all-time favorite Phillies teams is the 1993 squad. They not only played out of their minds that year, they beat the big bad Braves in the NLCS – I was at the clincher with my dad – before losing in the World Series to Joe Carter’s Blue …
Last Updated: June 17th, 2026 by Michael SchatzThe 2001 World Series will go down in history as one of the best ever played. It was the first World Series after the 9/11 terror attacks and pitted the three-time defending champion New York Yankees against the Arizona Diamondbacks, who were making their first appearance in the Fall Classic. This series had everything. Stacked teams. Drama. Tension. Blowouts. Walk offs. It was a baseball fan’s dream. As …
Last Updated: June 17th, 2026 by Michael SchatzEverything is magnified during the World Series. Every pitch. Every at bat. Every play. It’s immediately put under the microscope and could be why a team wins or loses not just the game, but the entire series. The first World Series was played in 1903. By my math – and I was a communications major so bear with me – the next World Series to be played will …
Last Updated: June 17th, 2026 by Michael SchatzBaseball fans love their stats. And more than any other sport, baseball has some of the most incredible, unbelievable, and downright strange records out there. Don’t take our word for it, see for yourself with this list of 25 crazy stats…
Last Updated: June 17th, 2026 by Michael SchatzWe all remember where we were on September 11, 2001. It was a day when time stood still and our lives were changed forever. For Major League Baseball, they had the difficult task of deciding when to play again. Did people even want something as trivial as a baseball game to be played? Would people gather in such large numbers? The answer came ten days later when the …
Last Updated: June 17th, 2026 by Michael SchatzIf you ask me, the whole GOAT (Greatest Of All Time) thing has been used to death. Everyone is suddenly the GOAT – and they’re not even doing GOAT things. They’re doing routine stuff. To be the GOAT – and I promise I’ll stop saying GOAT – you need to have left a lasting impression. Or, if you’re Rickey Henderson, just take the microphone and tell everyone that …
Last Updated: June 17th, 2026 by Michael SchatzIf you were a kid in 1998 then there were two players you probably imitated a lot: Ken Griffey Jr.’s sweet swing, and Sammy Sosa’s hop-skip after a home run. In my opinion, that has to be one of the better home run routines ever. And Sammy looked so cool doing it! He was a star in his day, best known for hitting moonshots, but let’s not forget …
Last Updated: June 17th, 2026 by Michael SchatzWe all can agree that home runs, big hits, and timely strikeouts are some of the most electrifying moments in a baseball game. But if you ask me, there’s another play that’s just as exciting – an outfield assist. Now, I know what you’re thinking. Outfield assist? Those are boring. And you’d be right. Some are. But I’m not talking about the run-of-the-mill, throwing a guy out trying …
Last Updated: June 17th, 2026 by Michael SchatzWe all know that baseball is the sport of statistics. We can debate for days on end which guy was the better player by comparing their batting average, WAR, strikeout-to-walk ratio, RBI totals, and on and on and on. But sometimes it’s fun just to marvel at what the greats were able to do during their illustrious careers. Here’s a list of some of the most mind-bobbling, crazy …
